Albert Einstein

British Pathe footage of Albert Einstein. The first clip 'Einstein Discovers Relative Climate' shows the scientist arriving in San Diego, California with his wife Elsa and an unidentified man. One reel depicts interesting footage of Einstein travelling with Jewish exiles, fleeing Nazi persecution. The film 'Death of Einstein' contains various moments from Einstein's life. The cheesily titled 'Relatively Speaking.. He's Delighted' show another welcome scene in which Einstein and two unidentified men are greeted by officials. Einstein cracks a joke with his audience. The final clip in this collection is Einstein's departure from America to the 'Fatherland'. It is interesting to note how so much coverage of Einstein was related to propaganda and territorial issues, regarding political ideologies, transatlantic travel and the threat of persecution.
